Chapter 961: February on the Plane

After staying in Kuala Lumpur for three days, Jiang Chen returned to Koro Island in his Gulfstream G650 and began to prepare for the next trip.

Not long after he returned to China, Xinghuan Trading sent an engineering ship to the waters between Anga Island and Xinma District to start underwater construction operations. Laying this kind of submarine transmission line is more troublesome than building an elevated transmission line on land, but for the star ring trade that is often engaged in submarine engineering, this trouble is nothing at all.

The person in charge of the project assured Jiang Chen that the transmission line could be completed by the end of March at the latest.

On the side of the lunar colony, Tang Weijie, the head of the colony, also assured Jiang Chen through a video call that the laying of long-distance power transmission equipment will be completed before the end of this month (February). As far as Star Ring City is concerned, the device for receiving lasers is also under construction.

Kerwin assured Jiang Chen that by mid-March at the latest, the entire territory of Xinguo will use the electricity generated by the lunar fusion power plant. The Koro Nuclear Power Plant, which has been criticized for a long time, can also withdraw from the stage of history.

...

Jiang Chen almost spent the entire February on the plane.

After Malaysia agreed to connect its power grid with Singapore, the negotiations between Transwarp Trading and Australia, India, Japan, South Korea and other countries are also proceeding simultaneously.

Just as Jiang Chen predicted, with an electricity price of 1.2 cents per kilowatt-hour, no one can refuse such an unimaginably huge profit margin. Some people speculate that the star ring trade uses solar energy, and some people speculate that there are a large amount of uranium and plutonium isotopes on the Bennu asteroid, but no one thinks about nuclear fusion.

Because it is too difficult to achieve nuclear fusion, no material can withstand the tens of millions of degrees of reaction temperature required for nuclear fusion to proceed. The legendary cold fusion has even more stringent conditions for its realization, even reaching the level of science fiction.

In fact, even in the 22nd century, there is no material that can withstand high temperatures of tens of millions of degrees.

If there is such a material, it will not be a problem to fly into the sun to mine. After all, the central temperature of the sun is only over 20 million degrees Celsius.

However, in the not-too-distant future, there is a magical technology that can confine particles in a certain space, keeping its own high temperature while keeping it out of contact with other materials. Instead of a material container in the traditional sense, it is held by a pair of invisible hands.

That is magnetic confinement technology.

But even counting magnetic confinement technology, nuclear fusion power generation is still an almost impossible problem for most people. A device for confining charged particles by magnetic confinement,

It was born as early as the end of the 20th century. However, using magnetic confinement technology to confine uncharged helium 3 and deuterium, the particle physics involved in it, cannot be explained by current physics.

In short, the negotiations with Australia were quite successful. The Australian side agreed to build this submarine cable, but insisted that the construction and maintenance of this submarine cable must be handed over to Australian companies. Jiang Chen readily accepted the proposal, and if he really wanted to hand it over to the offshore construction team of Xinghuan Trading, they couldn't spare any time, so they could only schedule the construction until after the completion of the submarine cable between Anga Island and Xinma Special Zone start again.

Australia's annual power generation is almost twice that of Malaysia, close to 400 billion kilowatt-hours. And because of institutional reasons, the Australian side did not intervene as much in the negotiations between Transwarp and domestic companies as the Malays did in terms of the specific amount of imported electricity.

Australia's electricity is basically monopolized by the two major companies. AGL, which is committed to the development of new energy sources, has spent a lot of money. After hearing Jiang Chen's offer, it signed a contract of 100 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity without saying a word, and wanted to enter the Australian market. Priority right to cooperation.

This market in the southern hemisphere will bring more than one billion Australian dollars in revenue to Star Ring Trade every year.

As for India, the negotiations were smoother.

As an emerging economy with the fifth largest power generation in the world, India's annual power subsidy is quite a scary figure. It's just that when negotiating with the Indians, Jiang Chen completely felt what moji was. Obviously the price has been negotiated, but the whole negotiation is inexplicably unable to reach an agreement.

In the end, Jiang Chen simply left the follow-up work of the negotiation to the Indian branch of Future People Bank, and let those professional negotiators represent the whole negotiation, and then set off for Japan.

He still has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't have time to waste in one place.

...

In Europe, at the foot of the Alps, in a manor owned by Rothschild, four or five fruit growers are working in front of rows of wooden frames hung with vines. The planting techniques they use are all inherited from the traditional planting techniques mastered by the Medici family in the 14th century.

The Rothschild family believes that only the traditional planting techniques can produce the most authentic wine. And the red wine that flows out of this winery is also a fine wine that is worth as much as gold, and is sought after by the entire upper class in Europe.

Beside the vineyard, a man in casual clothes was reading a newspaper in his hand, sitting on a rattan wooden chair.

If they hadn't walked in and looked, no one would have known that this man with a Jewish face was the uncrowned king of the underground and ground forces throughout Europe.

After the tragedy in the Pilsen Church, he who integrated all the power of the Freemasonry is indeed worthy of the term "uncrowned king". Among the top executives of the 33 Degrees Conference, only he has the oldest qualifications. As the Lord, he not only holds the power of the Freemasonry, but also controls the wealth of the entire Rothschild family.

However, at this moment, the young king had a very melancholy expression on his face.

A Mercedes-Benz stopped at the door of the winery, and Johnson, a black man in a suit, walked into the winery. He is Rothschild's personal bodyguard and his most loyal subordinate. He has been working for Carmen since he was picked up by Rothschild from the French Foreign Legion.

Even the Munich massacre that shocked the world has an active shadow behind him.

Without looking back at Johnson standing behind her, Carmen turned to the next page of the newspaper and asked in a chatty tone.

"Already finished?"

Like a ruthless war machine, Johnson responded.

"It's all done."

Just two hours ago, all dissenting voices within the EU were silenced.

Carmen grinned slightly with the corners of her mouth upwards, and closed the newspaper in her hand.

The housekeeper who had been standing by was a little surprised. This was the first time he saw his young master smiling today.

Putting the newspaper aside, Carmen stood up and smiled.

"Where are our enemies? Have they noticed?"

Johnson shook his head.

"very good."

Looking at the Alps not far away, the smile on Carmen's face became brighter, as if the snow had just melted on the Alps not far away.
